KANSAS STATE WILDCAT TENNISSEASON PREVIEW S

WILDCATS LOOKING FOR EXPERIENCE TO PRODUCE RESULTS IN THE SPRINGDown a set and facing a match point in favor of

Nebraska last spring, K-State’s Olga Klimova was sonervous she couldn’t keep her body from shaking.Trailing 40-15 with the Wildcats behind the Huskers 3-1, a miscue by Klimova could give Nebraska the match.Klimova pulled herself together, not once, not twice,but three times, and rallied for a win over EwelinaSkaza.

Feeding off the energy and emotion, FernandaDa Valle and Jessica Simosa survived second set tie-breakers and ended the Huskers in the third set.Klimova’s match highlighted a stunning Wildcat come-back and capped an undefeated run through the Big 12north by Kansas State.

“It was a pretty amazing comeback,” KansasState head coach Steve Bietau said of the regular-sea-son ending win. “In my 26 years of coaching, I’venever seen a match where a team was in this muchtrouble and came back and won. It was a great efforton our players’ part, to hang in there and keep fightingthe way they did.”

Perhaps more importantly, the match exposed asignificant change in the Wildcats. Beforehand, KansasState was a young, inexperienced team hoping to winmatches. Afterward, the team emerged as a tough andgritty squad that knew how to win in tight situations.

“I think it was an important point,” Bietau said.“It showed that they knew how to fight through atough situation and not give up, in a way that wehaven’t seen in a long time and in a way that we’dnever seen from that group. They really had their backagainst the wall there. I think it was one of thosemoments where when your team experiences some-thing like that, then they start to believe that maybethey can be good. It was one of those kinds ofmoments.”

Following the win at Nebraska, Kansas State took

the momentum into the first round of the Big 12Tournament, rolling past Oklahoma, 4-0, in the open-ing round. The Wildcats were eventually stopped byTexas A&M, a team that advanced to the NCAATournament and finished second in the Big 12 regularseason standings, but Kansas State’s new attitude haslingered through the summer and fall.

“Last year you could say that we were reallyyoung and didn’t have the experience,” Bietau said.“You can’t say that anymore. We go into this year witha lot better knowledge of what we’re going up againstand what we have to do to be successful.”

With a rigorous summer training schedule, theWildcats dispersed for the summer, only to return inthe fall stronger, faster, and more focused.

“It’s possible to work hard and not have a goodresult, but with things that we’ve focused on I thinkthere is a direct correlation with how hard they workedand what we’ll get out of it,” Bietau said. “First and

foremost, we had a great effort this fall. I would sayacross the board, there wasn’t a weak link. Physicallywe had a great effort and the conditioning went well.They practiced hard. While you’re doing this you’rehoping to instill some confidence and competitivenessand just a general attitude and a way of doing thingsthat’s going to stick with you as you get into the springseason. I was very pleased, I thought they workedreally hard, I thought they made a lot of progress thisfall.”

The 2007 squad doesn’t have any senior leader-ship but it does boast five juniors that Bietau will leanheavily on to lead the team. Despite the lack of sen-iors, Bietau sees the number of upperclassmen as anadvantage.

“It gives you a chance to work on differentthings,” Bietau said. “When you have a lot of youngplayers, sometimes I feel like the fall is spent coachingthem on how to be coached as opposed to coachingthem on tennis. We’ve been fortunate with this groupin that we’ve been able to focus a lot of time on howto be a better athlete and how to be a better tennisplayer.

“The maturity level is pretty good as you wouldexpect with as many juniors as we have on the teamhere. It definitely gives you a chance to move on tosome higher level things and focus on more complexissues. Hopefully that’s going to put us farther downthe road when we get to the spring.”

With a number of question marks headed intothe spring season, making any predictions for theWildcats’ success is difficult, but after posting the firstwinning season since 2003, the team is looking to takethe next step both in the Big 12 and on the nationalscene.

“They go hand in hand with each other. If you doone you take care of the other. As you get into the top

WE GO INTO THIS YEAR WITH A LOT BET-TER KNOWLEDGE OF WHAT WE’RE GOINGUP AGAINST AND WHAT WE HAVE TO DO

TO BE SUCCESSFUL.

-HEAD COACH STEVE BIETAU

H e a d C o a c h S t e v e B i e t a u a d d r e s s e s t h e t e a m d u r i n g a b r e a k i n p l a y.

four, five and six teams in the Big 12, you’re dealing with nationally ranked teamsand some of them really elite teams. That’s one of the things we talked about lastspring as we were looking ahead and thinking about over the summer. That’s reallybeen our focus for the last six or eight months.

“Our schedule as usual, is going to be pretty tough. We’re going to face a lotof great teams. I wouldn’t say that there’s any one thing we need to do. Just getbetter in all areas. Our team last year competed pretty hard. The vast majority ofthe time I was happy with the way they competed. They can still do better. I thinkyou can apply the same outlook to every area of our team. I think we have thecapacity for greater leadership this year just because we have so many upperclass-men. Many of those upperclassmen have things to prove before they become greatleaders. I’m hoping that we have more places on the team where that’s going tocome from than we’ve had in a long time.

“Each team is a little bit different. This team is going to have to find its ownpersonality and its own way of operating. The time to do that is coming. I’m confi-dent that they will do a good job based on everything they’ve done up to this point.”

Da Valle broke out last season, leading Kansas State in both singles and dou-bles wins with 22. Da Valle proved to be a fierce competitor in dual play, notching a14-6 dual record and an 8-4 mark in Big 12 contests.

Da Valle was hampered this fall with a lingering foot injury and was held outof the first two tournaments before making a surprise comeback at the ITA CentralRegion Tournament in late October. Da Valle won her first match back and was onewin away from earning a berth in the tournament’s main draw.

“Based on Fernanda’s condition when she returned in August, I felt like if shewas able to play the ASU Tournament in November, she would be on track for a greatspring season. Through her hard work, she got ahead of schedule and was able toplay two weeks earlier the ITA Central Region Tournament. Though she didn’t playenough matches to get to the top of her game, you could see a step ahead inmaturity from last year and some exciting potential for this spring.

“It will be great to see Fernanda playing at her full potential. Fernandais a great ball striker. She has the capacity to do things that a lot of girls play-ing college tennis don’t do. Having said all of that, she still has a ways togo. Last year was an important year for her where she could kind of gether feet on the ground and start to learn what works and what does-n’t work. We saw a pretty good performance there and I think shecan only get better this spring.”

Despite playing much of the 2006 season in pain, Klimovaproved to be one of Kansas State’s more reliable players in dual playand was a force in doubles. Klimova was 10-6 in dual play and finishedthird on the team with six singles wins in Big 12 action. In doubles,Klimova teamed with Da Valle to win 14 doubles matches, including a 9-3 record in Big 12 matches.

Klimova added five more doubles wins to her total while rolling to a 5-2 record with Katerina Kudlackova in the fall.

“She’s coming off of two knee surgeries. Last season she worked awful-ly hard just to get on the court and really never was healthy or was at the pointwhere she could play like I know she’s capable of. She had another surgery atthe end of last year.

“Olga has battled so hard with the knee problems. We’re hoping she can getto a point where all her energy can be directed toward training and playing. She hasmade tremendous progress in that direction this fall. Once she is able to focus moreon her tennis, I think you will really see her singles game pick up. She has been solidin doubles even when she was not 100 percent. That’s an area where she can beexceptionally strong.

“When we saw her and Katka together, it was pretty evident that that could bea good doubles team. We didn’t play them together a lot but the look that they gaveus when they were together was that I probably wouldn’t be able to keep themapart for too long. I’m really excited about what Olga brings to the team for dou-bles and then her leadership skills as a captain. She brings a competitiveness andalso the sense of humor that she brings to practice every day and the matches issomething that is very valuable.”

As quiet as Kudlackova can be off the court, her 19 singles wins and 18doubles wins in her debut season spoke loudly about the type of player she canbe. Kudlackova had mixed results in dual play and in the conference, butshowed flashes of being a very dynamic opponent.

Kudlackova continued her steady progress throughout the fall, posting a5-7 record and wins in the final two matches of the season.

“Katka made some great improvements over the summer,” Bietau said.“She was healthy, she worked hard over the summer, she got to play somequality matches, and during that play came to realize some things that shewas going to have to do to move up. She’s hitting through the ball a littlemore, hitting a little more penetrating ball. She’s always had great touch,always been able to move the ball around, but maybe lacked a little bit ofpower and wasn’t able to press people as much as she might have. She’sdefinitely made some improvements and I think you can see it in her sin-gles play. She’s been so solid in doubles, whoever you put with her indoubles you have to consider them for our No. 1 doubles team. I thinkwhen you see that kind of situation, you know she’s strong there.

“Katka is a solid player. She’s learning to play a little bit differentway. She’s learning to take advantage of her serve more, her reachmore, her ability to volley. She can play a game that’s not all that common

in women’s tennis in that she can come in quite a bit. Players who do that also haveto be solid in the back court and I think she’s done some things there that make iteasier for her to get in and put pressure on people and make her able to stay inpoints longer when she has to stay back.”

After a freshman season that saw the record books rewritten, TamarKvaratskhelia spent the 2006 season showing that she knows how to win matchesand do it at a very high level. Kvaratskhelia was 17-14 at the top of the Wildcats’lineup last season and her career .695 winning percentage is second-highest inKansas State history.

Kvaratskhelia, who won her second All-Big 12 singles honor in 2006, posted a6-4 singles mark in the fall and will be a huge factor in the success of the team thisseason.

“Tako continued to work at her game this fall andwe really saw an improvement in the last two tourna-

ments. I think she’s approaching the All-Big 12 levelthat we’re used to seeing from her,” Bietau

said. “She has at times had very goodresults in the fall, but at times shehasn’t. When we start playing dualmatches and start playing one ortwo matches a week, start to getinto a rhythm in doing that, she’sbeen an important part of ourteam and I expect that she willbe this spring.

Perhaps the biggest sur-prise of the 2006 season, MariaPerevoshchikova was 18-12and climbed to the No. 1 spotas a freshman whenKvaratskhelia went downwith an injury late in theseason. Perevoshchikovamissed the entire fall sea-

son while nursing a back injury and could be the pivotal piece of Kansas State’schances this spring.

“The big question mark is if Maria is going to be healthy,” Bietau said. “Whatwe learned from her last year is that she’s very tough, very determined. She has afairly simple game, but I mean that in a very complimentary way. She’s not fancy,not taking a lot of risks when she plays. She pretty much sticks to high percentagestuff and then fights her tail off.

“The climb that she made last year was so impressive to me. I always look atfreshman come in and it’s like ‘Oh my goodness.’ Honestly in the first month therewas a question whether Maria would make it into the lineup or not last year. It did-n’t take very long of being in there to see that not only was she going to be in thelineup, but she was going to be pretty solid. Then she went from being solid toknocking off anybody who wasn’t doing something special against her and thenreached a point where what she was doing started to be something special. We’reobviously hopeful for Maria and for our team that we’re going to get her back inthere and she can really be a huge factor for us.”

Tereza Prochazkova saw limited action for Kansas State last spring but when itmattered the most she competed the hardest. Prochazkova put together a 4-4 markin dual play and won two matches for Kansas State during Big 12 competition.

In the fall, Prochazkova played the most matches she’s been able to sincearriving at Kansas State while earning three singles wins and four doubles wins.

“Tereza has been very responsive to coaching. A year ago in the fall, I told herthat she had to practice harder and be more focused. She did that. When she wasa freshman she fought very hard in matches, we just didn’t see the same thing inpractice. When she started her sophomore year the message was you know how tofight when you get in a match, let’s see you do that every day in practice and shedid that.

“Tereza came back from this summer in great shape and really ready toimprove her game. Her serve is better and back hand is better and she earned theopportuity to play a lot more matches this fall. She’s certainly smart enough and hardworking enough that she can get in there and be very competitive. If you have acategory for players who have their act together – not just in tennis but in life ingeneral, they know where they’re supposed to be, can see what they need to do,they’re willing to work hard and have a pretty good perspective on things – Terezais right at the top on our team. Her maturity level is there and I see nothing butgood things ahead for her this spring.

“We wanted to get a lot of matches for her this fall and we were able to dothat. I expect Tereza to play a bigger role that she did last year and I think she’ll bevery important for our team this spring.”

Prochazkova put forth a stellar effort in the classroom last year and earnedFirst Team Academic All-Big 12 honors.

Being the only freshman on an experienced team and handling the expecta-tions of a program that has recently grown accustomed to very strong freshman suc-cess can be a daunting task, but Natasha Vieira shook it off and posted a 5-5 recordin the fall.

Vieira won in her first ever collegiate match during the Kansas StateInvitational and won matches in every tournament she appeared in.“Natasha has probably taken as big a jump as anyone on our team this fall,” Bietausaid. “I think some of that you attribute to being a freshman and being new andsome of it you attribute to being in a college program where you train a little bitharder.

“Her fitness level is improving, her strokes are improving, and she’s got a goodhead on her shoulders. She’s very coachable, it’s a relatively smooth process to workwith her. That’s a compliment to her, especially being as young as she is. She does-n’t have some of the maturity issues that a lot of freshmen have.

“She’s going to be able to help us, exactly where and exactly how, I’m not surehow that’s going to play out at this point. There are a number of things we just don’tknow about this team yet and we won’t for two or three months, but Natasha willdefinitely be in there for us.”

Perhaps the biggest and most surprising perform-ance of the fall was the play of Viviana Yrureta. Yruretatore through seven of her first eight opponents, cruising tothe Hoosier Classic Flight A Championship and run into theRound of 16 at the ITA Central Region Tournament.

After missing the entire 2006 spring schedulebecause of a December ankle surgery, Yrureta posted an8-5 singles mark in the fall. Three of Yrureta’s five winscame against nationally ranked opponents.

“Just about everything that could go wrong last yeardid go wrong,” Bietau said. When she came in I thoughtthat if things went well she could play in the middle of thelineup for us and really help us. We didn’t see her on thecourt enough to know what she was going to do and theseare what her limits are.

“When she left for the summer we were hoping thesame thing that we were with a lot of our players – thatshe’d be healthy enough to train, that she’d use the sum-mer to get herself fit and strong and ready to practicestrong. When she came back I was pleasantly surprised tosee the jump that she had taken.

“The thing you have to remember is that it’s been

quite a while since Vivi has been able to train and play matches for a sustained peri-od of time. What we saw from Vivi this fall was very exciting and I think will be ahuge boost to our team. Not only did she play well, but she consistently played well.She’s a fiery competitor and I expect her to lead us to some great things this year.”

Overall Bietau is excited about this group of players.“The one message that I’ve preached this fall was that our team record was

0-0 at the beginning of the fall and it would be 0-0 at the end of the fall,” Bietausaid. “We’ve had some health issues to deal with and I think our players have donea great job of positioning themselves for the spring. We played a lot of tough com-petition this fall and the goal was to put people in a position where they couldimprove. Again, I like the way that this team has handled the challenges that werepresented to them. I’m really excited about the prospect of putting all these piecestogether and seeing what our team looks like in the spring.”

plateau in 2006 and his teams have won 207 dual matches in his

22 seasons as the leader of the Kansas State program. The con-

tinued success of his teams both on and off the court show

Bietau’s knowledge and commitment to Kansas State

University and the Wildcat tennis program.Bietau’s 2006 squad finished the season 11-10, the eighth

season in Bietau’s tenure that the Wildcats finished with a win-ning record.

The 2006 Wildcats went 6-5 in Big 12 competition and fin-ished undefeated in the north division. Kansas State spent theentire season ranked in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association(ITA) polls and finished the season as the No. 54 team in thenation.

During the 2006 season, Alena Jecminkova, who played forBietau and the Wildcats from 1999 to 2002, was named to the Big12 Women’s Tennis 10th Anniversary Team.

In 2003, the Wildcats had the best season of any Bietau team andposted a school-record 15 victories and a record-tying seven Big 12 winsen route to reaching the round of 16 of the NCAA Tournament for the firsttime in school history. K-State upset No. 9 Virginia Commonwealth and No. 16Northwestern before bowing out to No. 5 USC in the regional semifinals. It marked the thirdtime the Wildcats have advanced to the NCAA Tournament. Kansas State finished the seasonat No. 32 in the ITA final poll and were ranked No. 1 in the ITA Central Region poll.Individually, Petra Sedlmajerova and Paulina Castillejos were ranked No. 4 in doubles in theregion, while Sedlmajerova (No. 8), Maria Rosenberg (No. 13) and Jessica Simosa (No. 21) fin-ished the season ranked in singles in the region.

The 2000 Big 12 Conference Coach of the Year, Bietau had yet another successful seasonin 2000.

before falling to Kansas, 5-4, in the semifinals. In 1998, the Wildcats lost in the round of theregional to No. 3-seed New Mexico, 5-3.

Kansas State’s success is due in large part to Bietau’s outstanding recruiting, especially on theinternational level. Bietau recruited Kansas State’s only two All-Americans, Yana Dorodnova (1998)and Karina Kuregian (1994) from Russia and Armenia, respectively.

Besides Chuda, Kansas State has produced three other conference singles champions underBietau’s tutelage, Karina Kuregian, Michele Riniker and Helen Schildknecht, and with Kuregian andMartina Shrubsole and Paulina Castillejos and Hayley McIver, a pair of conference championshipdoubles teams.

CAMPUS HOUSINGStudents can choose from nine residencehalls, 11 national sororities, 24 nationalfraternities, three scholarship houses oruniversity apartments.

It's a vibrant time at Kansas State. The most easily recognizable part of this new period of growth andimprovement comes in the form of enrollment figures. More than 23,000 students enrolled at Kansas State during the fall2005 academic year. That's a stunning accomplishment for President Jon Wefald and his staff, who have spearheaded ahuge enrollment increase since their arrival in 1986.

Under his leadership, K-State has added about 2.0 million square feet of new university buildings, including anew library, a new art museum, and a nationally acclaimed plant science building. In addition, during the Wefald yearsenrollments increased from about 16,000 to more than 23,000; K-State has built a healthy endowment program andestablished a national presence in athletics. With Wefald at the helm, K-State's total research funding increased to recordnumbers. The university returns nearly $17 for every $1 of state funding it receives.

Founded on February 16, 1863, Kansas State is the oldest public institution of higher education in Kansas andone of the nation's first land-grant universities. Throughout its history, K-State's mission has been rooted in the principlesset forth in the Morrill Act-to provide teaching, research and service to the citizens of Kansas, the nation and the world.The university's 664-acre wooded campus with historic sandstone buildings is located in Manhattan (pop. 49,000). It's apleasant community nestled in the scenic Flint Hills, 125 miles west of Kansas City.

K-State has gained a nationwide reputation for producing prestigious scholarship winners. Only Yale,Stanford, Radcliffe and Harvard have had more.

KANSAS STATE COLLEGES

WELCOME TO THE LITTLE APPLEManhattan is located in the northern end of the beau-tiful Flint Hills. The city was founded in the first daysof Kansas settlement and currently has a populationof 45,000 in the city, 100,000 in the immediateregion. It is a modern, progressive city that is hometo Kansas State University, the Fort Riley MilitaryReservation and several successful corporate citizens.It is located in north central Kansas, on Interstate 70,125 miles west of Kansas City, and 50 miles west ofthe state capitol in Topeka.

HISTORYIt was on Valentine’s Day in 1857 that Manhattan offi-cially became a city in the Midwest. And it was onlybecause the Kansas River had been low two yearsearlier that the city was located where it is now.

It all began in the spring of 1855 when theCincinnati Company left Ohio on the steamboatHartford. They were headed for central Kansas viathe Ohio, Mississippi, Missouri, and Kansas Rivers.Their goal: to settle a town and name it Manhattan,thinking it might become a second Manhattan, NewYork.

On the way up the Kansas River, three menstopped, went ashore, and hired a wagon. Theydrove to what is now Junction City, where theyintended to start the Manhattan of the Midwest. But

the Hartford ran aground in theKansas River south of the conflu-ence of the Blue and KansasRivers. The Cincinnati Companyand all of the small groups ofsettlers already in the areajoined forces to form atown, which they agreed tocall Manhattan.

The first post officewas established in1856, and the citybecame incorporated

February 14, 1857.Manhattan has

grown steadilysince then.

Although

Manhattan, Kansas, may not be another New YorkCity in size, residents of Manhattan of the Midwestthink you’ll savor the savvy of “The Little Apple.”

“The Little Apple” is home to more than 45,000people today. Manhattan is nestled in among the pic-turesque Flint Hills, so named for their numerousbands of limestone and flint. These bands of flintygravel convinced many an early settler that the landwas not suitable for cultivation. A few resourceful pio-neers, however, chose to stay and build their farm-steads in the sheltered valleys where water was avail-able even in times of drought and where their cattlecould graze on the grassy uplands.

The Flint Hills region still remains largelyuntouched by the plow and is the last large preserveof native tallgrass prairie in the U.S.

Today, Manhattan residents take pride in thelocal history. The community is especially proud of itsnickname, “The Little Apple”-symbolic of a polished,wholesome Midwestern Manhattan, founded by pio-neers who foresaw great things for this part of theU.S.

A TRUE COLLEGE TOWNA student-athlete’s life involves more than

academics and athletics. Like most collegestudents, student-athletes need to relax

and have a good time, and Manhattan

is the place to do just that. Manhattan reflects thejoys and opportunities of big-city living while retaininga friendly, open atmosphere. Manhattan has manyappealing places to shop, eat and socialize. Anaward-winning shopping mall is located in the heartof the downtown region, and Aggieville – a district ofshops and restaurants just beyond the southern bor-der of the campus – continues to be particularly pop-ular with students. There are several beautiful parksand walkways throughout the city, while picturesqueTuttle Creek Reservoir sits just five miles from cam-pus for seasonal swimming, water skiing and boating.Additionally, the 13,500-seat Bramlage Coliseum havebecome a favorite stop for major concerts throughoutthe year.

TUTTLE CREEK LAKETuttle Creek State Park and the Tuttle Creek Resevoirare located just north of Manhattan. The 12,500 acrelake offers everything a water sports or outdoorsenthusiast could want. From water skiing to fishing,or a hike around one of the park’s many trails,there are numerous activities available justminutes from campus.

KANSAS STATE WILDCAT TENNIS ddddPOWERCAT STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING i IS

The Powercat Strength and Conditioning Program is designed to “build better athletes,” not to develop powerlifters, Olympic weightlifters or body-builders. Led by the 1998 National Strength andConditioning Coach of the Year Rod Cole as well as assistant coaches Mark Oberkrom, Karl Kasselman and Scott Bird and the rest of the staff trains the Wildcats to play the game! Obviously, whenmost people think of strength coaches, they think of weightlifting. Kansas State’s Vanier strength complex boasts two weight rooms, over 12,000 square feet of floor space, 35,000 lbs. of weights, plusplatforms, racks, benches and machines. In 2006 the John L. Allen Strength Center was completed at Tointon Family Stadium adding another 1,500 square feet of weight room access. Weight train-ing is a big part of the program, but the strength and conditioning does not coach weightlifters, it trains athletes. It’s all about being prepared to win on game day. Speed development, agility, flexi-bility, coordination, endurance and nutrition are some of the areas that fall under the umbrella of strength and conditioning. Kansas State strives to develop the total athlete through a total body pro-gram. K-State employs nutrition counters in both strength facilities to “fuel the athletes” and equip them to meet the demands of training.

NICKNAMEThrough its first 19 seasons of athletic competition, Kansas State had used“Aggies” as its nickname. But prior to the 1915 season, new football coachJohn “Chief” Bender gave his squad the nickname “Wildcats.” The monikerlasted the one season Bender coached at K-State. Under football coach Z.G.Clevenger in 1917, the school team became known as the “Farmers.” In 1920another new football coach, Charles Bachman, took over the program, renam-ing the team “Wildcats.” This time, the nickname stuck.

WILLIE WILDCATWillie, a student bedecked in a oversized Wildcat head, is Kansas State’s No. 1fan. Willie Wildcats are selected yearly by a panel appointed by the cheerlead-ing coach. The mascot is a central part of athletic contests, but also attendsfunctions around the state as an ambassador. Traditionally, the identity of thestudent portraying Willie is kept secret.

KSU COLORSThe school color Royal Purple was adopted in the fall of 1896 by a committeeof “Miss Minnie L. Copeland, Jr. and Miss Winnifred Houghton and Miss Ina E.Holyrod, of the senior class, and perhaps one or more others.” Although K-State’s only official color is purple, white has been used as a complimentarycolor for many years. Silver is also a common second or third color. Formerhead basketball coach Cotton Fitzsimmons incorporated gold during his two-year stint (1968-70), but gold or yellow has not been used since that time.The term “Purple Pride,” which is often used in association with KSU athletics,was given rise during the tenure of head football coach Vince Gibson (1967-74).

POWERCAT LOGOOne of the most recognizable athletic logos in the nation is the K-StatePowercat. The logo was introduced by Bill Snyder shortly after his arrival inManhattan as the attitude of the entire athletics department and universitywas changing. Manhattan native Tom Bookwalter, in cooperation with head coach Bill Snyder,created the powerful logo that is a prominent feature on the K-State footballhelmet, at Wagner Field, on the back of the Dev Nelson Pressbox, clothing,flags, bottled water, vanity plates for cars and just about anywhere there canbe one.

SCHOOL SONGSThe Alma Mater was selected as a result of an 1888 campus contest. H.W.Jones (’88) was responsible for K-State’s prized result. Jones’ original workwas four stanzas including the chorus. His version has been slightly alteredover the years to include just two stanzas and the changing of the words fromKSAC to KSU. The school’s fight song is entitled “Wildcat Victory.”

ALMA MATER“I know a spot that I love full well, ‘Tis not in forest nor yet in dell, ever itholds me with magic spell, I think of thee Alma Mater. KSU, we’ll carry thebanner high, KSU long, long may thy colors fly. Loyal to thee, thy childrenshall swell the cry. “Hail, Hail, Hail Alma Mater.”

WILDCAT VICTORY“Fight you K-State Wildcats. For Alma Mater fight-fight-fight. “Glory into com-bat for the purple and white. Faithful to our colors, we shall ever be, fightingever fighting for a Wildcat Victory!”

WABASH CANNONBALLEveryone knows that familiar tune Wabash Cannonball. In fact, Wabash and K-State are almost synonymous. What many people do not know is how thesong became an integral part of Wildcat athletics. In the fall of 1969, thedepartment of music burnt down. Every piece of music in the building wasdestroyed. The only thing that was salvaged was what was in the band direc-tor’s brief case. That included a piece of music titled the Wabash Cannonball.With an upcoming football game and no music, that left only one thing to do.The band members played the song loud and often. A song that originally hadno connection became a second fight song.

SLOGANSSeveral chants and slogans are used in association with the team. “PurplePride” and “Eat ‘Em Up, Eat ‘Em Up K-S-U” were mentioned earlier on thispage. One slogan that has virtually died out is “Every Man A Wildcat.” Theterm was popular in the ‘50s, ‘60s and early ‘70s, and once adorned the frontof the Ahearn Field House press box. Since the term referred to only one gen-der, however, it has faded. Kansas State, itself, is referred to in many differentshortened versions. The most popular is “K-State,” which is used by alums,friends and journalists from coast to coast.

Dr. Jon WefaldUniversity PresidentPacific Lutheran ‘59

Few college presidents have been as well recognized nationally for improving the athletic and academic programs on a campus as has K-State's Jon Wefald.Lauded by publications from the Christian Science Monitor to Sports Illustrated to USA Today, and by broadcasters like Paul Harvey, the

accomplishments during Wefald's tenure have been well noted in the national media. USA Today called these achievements the "miraclein Manhattan."Under his leadership, K-State has added about 2.0 million square feet of new university buildings, including a new library, a new art muse-

um, and a nationally acclaimed plant science building. In addition, during the Wefald years enrollments increased from about 16,000 tomore than 23,000; K-State has built a healthy endowment program and established a national presence in athletics. With Wefald at thehelm, K-State's total research funding increased to record numbers. The university returns nearly $17 for every $1 of state funding itreceives.Since his arrival in 1986, K-State leads the nation's public universities in the total number of Rhodes, Marshall, Truman, Goldwater and

Udall scholarship winners. K-State students have won more Truman scholarships, more Goldwater scholarships and more Phi Kappa Phi Fellowships than any other publicuniversity in the nation. By recognizing and encouraging excellence, Wefald has helped K-State achieve the pinnacle of success.

KANSAS STATE WILDCAT TENNISUNIVERSITY ADMINISTRATION S

Tim WeiserDirector of AthleticsEmporia State ‘81, ‘82

In just five years as Athletics Director at KansasState, Tim Weiser has guided Wildcat athletics toan unprecedented level of success that has seen itemerge as one of the Big 12 Conference’s premierprograms.And while he is quick to deflect praise for Kansas

State’s accomplishments toward student-athletes,coaches, staff, university administrators and theprogram’s loyal fans, few can argue that Weiser’svisionary leadership has spearheaded a complete

transformation of the athletics department that has K-State poised to meet the chal-lenges of the 21st Century.

Guided by a philosophy of providing the best possible experience for KansasState’s student-athletes, Weiser, who recently agreed to a 10-year rollover contractextension, has been able to focus the efforts of an entire department and as a resultusher in the most successful era in athletics ever at K-State.

Since his arrival in July of 2001, Weiser, 48, has employed a combination ofstrong management principles and his sound financial planning to yield consistentgrowth in the areas of revenues, donor and corporate support and facility enhance-ment.

This focus on fund-raising and fiscal responsibility has enabled Kansas State toundertake an aggressive yet fiscally responsibleapproach to facility improvements that have yieldedacross-the-board upgrades for nearly all of K-State’s16 intercollegiate athletics programs.

In the last two years alone, K-State has com-pleted a nearly $6 million upgrade to the VanierSports Complex and Bill Snyder Family Stadium,constructed new team facilities for the track & fieldand rowing programs, and installed new playingsurfaces in just about all of its competitive and prac-tice venues, including new FieldTurf in the IndoorFootball Complex, Brandeberry Indoor Complex andTointon Family Stadium.

During his first year at Kansas State, construc-tion was completed on Frank Myers Field at TointonFamily Stadium, bringing the Wildcats’ baseballfacility to a stature as one of the best in the Big 12 Conference.

Kansas State’s annual athletics operating budget has also taken quantum leapsforward under Weiser’s direction, growing from $27 million in fiscal year 2001 to oneprojected at over $37 million for the upcoming academic year. Additionally, Weiser’sforward-thinking philosophies have established the department’s first-ever reservefund as K-State has finished in the black in each year of his tenure.

On the field, the Wildcats continue to enjoy unprecedented success. K-Statehas sent no fewer than 10 of its 16 teams on to postseason play in each of the lastthree years, while producing 38 All-Americans.

In 2003-04, Weiser’s third year at the helm, Kansas State became the first Big12 institution to win conference championships in three top-tier sports (football, vol-leyball, women’s basketball) in the same year. And, if you consider that K-State alsohad at least one first-team academic All-American on each of those championshipteams, one begins to get a clear picture of what K-State athletics have become dur-ing Weiser’s tenure.

Kansas State has also become one of the conference leaders in classroomachievement. Over the past three years nearly half of K-State’s student-athletes haveachieved a grade-point average of 3.0 or better, earning Big 12 Commissioner’sHonor Roll distinction.

The popularity of Wildcat athletics has also skyrocketed to an all-time highunder Weiser’s direction. The football and men’s basketball programs are expectedto both produce impressive increased season-ticket sales numbers in 2006-07, whilethe women’s volleyball and basketball programs both continue to rank among thenational leaders in attendance. On the diamond, K-State baseball enjoyed its high-est average season attendance ever at Tointon Family Stadium during 2006.

This increase in popularity, combined with the public’s confidence in Weiser’sleadership, has helped generate record revenues in the areas of fund-raising, corpo-rate sponsorship and media rights. The number of contributors to the Mike AhearnScholarship fund is now approaching 8,000, representing a 25 percent increase over2002-03 and a nearly 50 percent increase from Weiser’s first year at K-State.Corporate support of K-State athletics is also at an all-time high, buoyed by a record-setting five-year sponsorship pact with ALLTEL.

Weiser has also negotiated new deals for K-State’s radio and third-tier televi-sion rights, including a 10-year multimedia and marketing rights contract withLearfield Communications, Inc., that is the largest revenue contract in the history ofWildcat athletics.

In an effort to continue this era of success, Weiser implemented a first-everStrategic Plan to serve as a blueprint for the department during the next three years.The plan encompasses every aspect of the department and includes K-State’s ongo-ing effort to provide its student-athletes with top-notch facilities.

Weiser’s accomplishments in bringing significant and positive changes to theK-State athletics landscape have not gone unnoticed as he has developed a strongprofile on the national level. A recently-named member of the NCAA ChampionshipsCabinet as well as the NCAA Baseball Committee, Weiser was selected as the 2004-05 NACDA Central Region Athletics Director of the Year in June. He has also receivedthe General Robert Neyland Outstanding Athletics Director Award from the All-America Football Foundation and is a member of the Executive Committee ofNACDA.

As an active member of the NCAA Division I-A Athletic Director’s AssociationBoard of Directors, Weiser has additionally been involved with a number of univer-sity visits as part of the NCAA Division I Peer Review program.

Named Kansas State’s 13th Directorof Athletics on July 1, 2001, Weiser’s arrivalat K-State was a homecoming for the nativeKansan, who was raised in Great Bend andreceived his bachelor’s degree in psychologyand a master’s in counseling from EmporiaState while competing on a baseball scholar-ship.

He came to Kansas State after a suc-cessful three-year run as Director of Athleticsat Colorado State, where Ram athletics expe-rienced a similar renaissance that includedrecord increases in fund-raising and revenuegeneration and the completion of the $8 mil-lion Fum McGraw athletic center.

Weiser also played a central role in the development of the Mountain WestConference during his CSU tenure. He was involved in hiring the commissioner,negotiating television packages and developing the conference’s constitution and by-laws.

Prior to his tenure at Colorado State, Weiser served as athletics director atEastern Michigan for four years and held the same position at Austin Peay StateUniversity from July 1988 to September 1993.

At Eastern Michigan, he directed an athletics department which included 22sports. In his four seasons, he turned a deficit of more than a half-million dollars intoa six-figure surplus while simultaneously adding two new women’s sports. In all,EMU won 14 conference championships during his tenure and in 1996 captured theReese Trophy, awarded annually by the Mid-American Conference for overall excel-lence in men’s sports. He also directed and supervised the design and constructionof a $30 million convocation center which opened in October 1998.

In his first stint as an athletics director at Austin Peay, Weiser’s five-year tenurewitnessed the development of a number of academic programs to enhance the sup-port of student-athletes at the school while spearheading various fund-raisingendeavors which generated more than $1 million in facility improvements.

Weiser worked for five years at Wichita State, serving in various roles fromFebruary 1983 through July 1988. He directed the compliance office and supervisedthe academic support unit before moving into a role in the development office,where he was responsible for the bulk of fund-raising for improvements to WichitaState’s baseball facility. Weiser spent his last year at Wichita State as the associateathletics director and was responsible for day-to-day operations of the Shockers’ pro-grams.

Weiser and his wife, Susan, are the parents of two children. Melanie is a gym-nast at the University of Arizona, while Rudy is currently a standout catcher on theManhattan High School baseball team.

Key Rule: NCAA BYLAW 13.01.5In Division I, representatives of athletics interest areprohibited from making in-person, on-or-off campusrecruiting contacts, written, telephonic communica-tions or e-mail transactions with a prospect or theprospect’s relatives or legal guardians.

Interpretations1. A representative of a Division I institution is pro-hibited from making in-person recruiting contact witha prospect and his or her parents/guardian on or offcampus.Limited Exception: You may have contact with aprospect regarding permissible pre-enrollment activi-ties such as summer employment, provided theprospect has already signed a National Letter ofIntent and K-State is aware that you are makingthese contacts in regard to employment.

2. A Division I representative is prohibited from writ-ing or telephoning a prospect and his or her parentsor legal guardians.Limited Exception: You may have a phone conver-sation with a prospect only if the prospect initiatesthe call. Such a call may not be prearranged by a K-State staff member and you are not permitted tohave a recruiting conversation, but may exhibit nor-mal civility. You must refer any questions about theUniversity’s athletic program to the athletic depart-ment.

3. A representative is prohibited from contacting aprospect’s coach, principal, or counselor in an attemptto evaluate the prospect. Limited Exception: NCAA rules do not preclude youfrom viewing a prospect’s contest on your own initia-tive, but you may not contact the prospect, pick upgame films or transcripts.

What can I do?If you know of a high school or junior college stu-dent-athlete who might want to attend Kansas State,the only permissible activity for a representative is tocall the appropriate K-State coach.

What is an “Extra Benefit?”An extra benefit would include provision of any trans-portation, meals, clothes, entertainment, preferentialloan terms, wages not commensurate with duties, orother benefits offered to a prospect or current stu-dent-athlete which is unavailable to the general stu-dent population.

What can you do with prospects?DO feel free to attend high school and junior collegeathletic events.

The NCAA permits student-athletes AS ATEAM to receive special benefits not permitted asindividuals. Arrangements for such events must bemade in advance with the head coach or appropriateathletic staff member.

Other questions and answers:Q. May I accompany the coach during a “home”visit with the prospect?A. NoQ. May a booster group finance a season-endingbanquet? May it purchase any awards for the team?A. Yes, provided all funds are expended throughthe athletic department.

CONTACT is prohibited.3. If you think it is wrong then it probably

is wrong.4. No question is too dumb to ask.5. Questions: Call 785-532-6910
